But remember that the lists purpose is not for communicating with 
RunRev. Don't be surprised that it is not good for that purpose. And 
since it is certain that the vast majority of readers of the list do 
not work for RunRev, we must all choose our tone to reflect that. 
Obviously, it is pointless (and rude) to adopt a complaining or 
sarcastic tone with the list.

I don't know, of course, but might it be that you are not currently 
developing anything quite as large and complex as a multi-platform, 
general purpose programming language and IDE?
